Price: 0
Description: The NERVOUS SYSTEM lacks connective tissue and bone, however, the skull and vertebral canal act as an exoskeleton. The glial cellular organization of the nervous system comprises an internal skeleton that supports neurons metabolically, functionally and structurally. Astrocytes and oligodendroglia are supporting cells in the CNS while satellite cells, connective tissue and Schwann cells are supporting cells in the PNS."
